Bulkhead Fitting

A bulkhead fitting is a specialized plumbing component used to create a watertight connection through a wall, tank, or barrier. It typically consists of a threaded flange, a gasket or sealing material, and a lock nut. The bulkhead fitting is installed by creating a hole or penetration in the wall or tank, and then inserting the threaded portion through the opening. The gasket or sealing material is placed between the flange and the wall to ensure a watertight seal, while the lock nut is tightened to secure the fitting in place.
